Emily de Molly Sakura

I recently bought Sakura from Sally Magpies, along with three other Emily de Molly polishes. This is the one that I chose first when I was buying them, as I loved it so much. I love the simplicity of the colour scheme, and I love round glitters.

My son used to go to school with a little Japanese girl called Sakura, so I already knew that it means cherry blossom. And that’s a very fitting name for this polish with its milky base and pink and charcoal glitters.

I wasn’t sure how sheer it would be, so I used it over China Glaze My Boyfriend Scales Walls. I don’t think it needed undies though as it went on really well and didn’t seem streaky at all. The glitters remain suspended and so I didn’t have to shake up the bottle, nor fish around to get them onto the brush.

About me

I'm Claire Kerr and I'm a UK nails blogger. I've only been addicted to nail polish since 2012. Some kind of mid-life crisis turned me from a tomboy into a girly girl!

I had been posting pics of my manicures to Facebook, really as a way of documenting them for myself, but I was filling up my timeline with the photos and most of my friends weren't interested. So I started this blog instead!
